Beginner
These friendly and relaxed courses run in 5- or 6-week blocks, with 2-hour sessions designed for complete beginners. Each week, you’ll learn fundamental silver jewellery-making techniques such as sawing, filing, soldering, roll printing, stamping, shaping, and finishing metals like copper and silver.
The course is structured around simple projects, allowing you to create items like a silver ring, pendant, earrings, or cufflinks. You'll also learn how to make a cabochon stone setting.
Materials for beginner projects are available to purchase during class, typically costing between £10 and £40 for the full course, depending on your design choices.
Class sizes are small (maximum 6 students), and all tools are provided. You only need to bring a sketchbook, pencil, and reading glasses if you use them.
Parking is available.

Improver and Intermediate
These 8-week, 2 and 3 hour courses are designed for students who have already mastered the basics. They offer the opportunity to learn more advanced techniques or continue working on personal projects with guidance as needed. Available during the day and evening, the classes provide tutor support while encouraging students to review existing skills, explore new ones, and gain confidence through practice and experimentation.
Materials are not included in the course fee. While a small supply of silver and stones is available for purchase, students are encouraged to source their own materials, which can be discussed during class.
